AS for the strategy....I think it would be a good idea to discuss it
with Avri among others who have been in the thick of it trying to
get the language into the bylaws. The CCWG gets quite heated and
this is very controversial and close to some government hearts, not
to mention industry hearts. I would suggest a somewhat cautious
approach, but perhaps I just find the CCWG multiple conversations
and calls overwhelming. I would suggest you have a listen to some
of them before you wade in Niels. <br>
cheers Stephanie<br>
PS I will see if I can find and forward the email that has the list
of all who have joined the group. <br>

</span>Thanks Marilia. Do you think it would also make
sense to draft a<br>
public comment to the CCWG report by suggesting concrete
text? Or<br>
would the best workflow be to work on this in the
subgroup? Has the<br>
subgroup already been formed? Do you know when they should
finish and<br>
whether people from this list, who are not participating
in the CCWG,<br>
can join?<br>
<br>
Best,<br>

><br>
> These discussions identified the following,
non-exhaustive, list<br>
</span>> of accountability-related requirements : - the
NTIA criteria to<br>
<span class="">> maintain the openness of the Internet,
including free expression<br>
</span>> and the free flow of information - the need to
avoid extending<br>
> Icann's mission into content regulation - the
importance of<br>
<span class="">> assessing the impact of Icann policies
on Human righ ts<br>
><br>
> Examples of language that could serve as a
Commitment were as<br>
</span>> follows : - Within its mission and in its
operations, ICANN will be<br>
<span class="">> committed to respect the fundamental
human rights of the exercise<br>
</span>> of free expression and the free flow of
information. - Within its<br>
